Chapter 3 Ahhhhh he’s coming! He’s coming! Ahhhh he…
"ah??"
Su Yinuo took a few seconds to react before she came to her senses and said, "You want me to have dinner with your fiancé? This... this seems... this is not good... Even if we look alike, we are very different. He will definitely recognize us, right? Besides, I, I have never had dinner alone with a man..."
Her mind was in a mess and her words were a mess.
"Don't worry, he won't recognize me. He absolutely won't recognize me! We've only met a few times. Do you know how we usually eat? It's like two strangers at different tables in a restaurant. He never even looks me in the eye. We each eat our own food and leave right after we're done. But now, I feel physically nauseous just sitting with him and breathing the same air. So, please help me..."
Su Yinuo finally agreed. After all, the reward of 6,600 yuan was too tempting, and if it was really as Li Jinmiao said, nothing would go wrong.
Even though she knew nothing would happen, Su Yinuo was still nervous for the whole day. The next day, she didn't set up shop, but told her mother she'd found a part-time job from Sunday afternoon to evening. She cleaned up the house, made her mother a hearty lunch, and then left.
She returned to Building 5 of the Software Park and found Li Jinmiao's company: Feiyue Games. It was a game development company occupying the top floor of Building 5. There were over a hundred employees, almost all of whom were buried in their computers at their workstations. When Su Yinuo walked in, she didn't even see the front desk receptionist.
She stopped a guy who was walking out of his workstation and asked with an embarrassed smile, "Hello, where is Mr. Li's office?"
The elder brother then raised his head, rubbed his tired eyes, looked at Su Yinuo blankly and called out, "Hello, Mr. Li."
"Ah? No, I'm not Mr. Li. You've made a mistake. I'm here to see Mr. Li," Su Yinuo waved her hands in panic.
A young man walked out of the office area, exclaimed in surprise, and said, "You're CEO Li's sister, right? You look alike." He put his arm around the shoulders of the older man next to him and said with a smile, "Brother Wang, you must be dizzy from working overtime. When did CEO Li smile so sweetly? Go to the empty conference room and take a break."
After sending his older brother away, the young man waved towards Su Yinuo and said with a smile, "Come, I'll take you to Mr. Li's office. My name is Ji Wenjun. What's your name, little sister? Are you in college?"
"Su Yinuo, I didn't go to college..." Su Yinuo answered casually. When she walked to the door of Li Jinmiao's office, she heard the cursing from inside again.
"Our CEO Li has such a bad temper, haha," Ji Wenjun said with a smile, "Assistant Zhang and I are the only ones in the entire company who can withstand CEO Li's temper. I'm thick-skinned, but Assistant Zhang has a really good personality. Let's wait and see until CEO Li has finished his temper before going in. Oh, by the way, little Su Yinuo, are you really CEO Li's sister? Why don't you have the same surname? That's not right, CEO Li is the only daughter of the Li Group..."
Ji Wenjun was such a talkative person that Su Yinuo's ears were buzzing and countless little bees seemed to be floating in front of her eyes. By the time Ji Wenjun finished speaking, she had forgotten most of what he said and replied in a daze, "She's not my sister, she's my friend."
She looked very cute, like a soft little hamster who didn't know where the food was hiding. Ji Wenjun was stunned for a moment, and his heart was instantly struck. He couldn't help but ask, "Little sister, are you an adult?"
"Yeah," Su Yinuo nodded.
"Then do you have a boyfriend?" Ji Wenjun asked hurriedly.
Su Yinuo raised her head and stared at the carefree and good-looking young man in front of her for three seconds, then firmly said a word that Ji Wenjun did not expect: "Yes!"
The reason I say yes is of course to avoid trouble, just like every time I set up a stall, I wrap myself up tightly and pretend to be "Auntie Zhang".
Su Yinuo knew that with her current family situation, she could not withstand any more storms.
It is impossible to fall in love because I don’t have time to cultivate a relationship, and I don’t believe that anyone can truly like me when I am heavily in debt and have a disabled mother.
It is impossible for her to dress up beautifully like an internet celebrity and sell spicy hot pot. She is now the pillar of the family. If she offends some thugs, the whole family will be ruined.
"Really?" Ji Wenjun didn't quite believe it.
"Really!" Su Yinuo nodded seriously, "Taller than you, more handsome than you, and richer than you."
Ji Wenjun covered his chest with a sad face and almost vomited blood.
The scolding in the office had subsided. Someone opened the door and walked out with a pale face. Ji Wenjun shook his head sympathetically, walked in with Su Yinuo, and shouted incoherently, "Boss Li, your long-lost sister has come to fight for the family fortune!"
Inside the room, Li Jinmiao put his hands on his hips, breathing heavily, as if he still had a lot of anger that he hadn't vented. Next to him, his assistant Zhang Yifeng, who was wearing glasses and looked gentle, was sorting out the documents that Li Jinmiao had thrown away, and then handed Li Jinmiao a cup of tea.
Li Jinmiao took the teacup and almost spilled it on Ji Wenjun. She glared at him and yelled, "You have time to be slick here, but don't you have time to optimize that five-second lagging animation?"
"Isn't your sister here? Haha, I'm leaving. Mr. Li, calm down. I promise to optimize it for you today..." Ji Wenjun dragged out the last word and shouted as he left the office, "Ten seconds!"
Li Jinmiao sighed deeply, and said with tears in his eyes: "Why did I hire such a person?"
Zhang Yifeng, standing by, smiled gently and said, "Ji Wenjun has only been in the art department for half a year, and he's already completely replaced all the outdated character models, with a 90% match with the program. He's a talent you've recruited."
"Okay, okay, don't say anymore," Li Jinmiao waved his hand, called Su Yinuo, who was standing at the door in a daze, and hugged her arm, complaining, "Nunuo, what kind of life do I live every day? If I have to go to dinner with that evil spirit tonight, I will be so angry that I will die..."
"Sister Miaomiao, you have worked hard," Su Yinuo smiled sweetly and patted Li Jinmiao's shoulder gently.
Zhang Yifeng looked at their backs and muttered, "They really look like sisters..."
Li Jinmiao brought Su Yinuo into the lounge inside the general manager's office, took out the brand-name clothes, jewelry and bags specially prepared for her, and then took out a makeup box.
"Just sit still, hey, I'll give you a big transformation!"
Half an hour later, a refreshed Su Yinuo appeared before Zhang Yifeng, who was waiting in the office. Her long hair was loose, her bangs were curled into a neat middle part, and her makeup was very mature. Her accessories and outfit were all Li Jinmiao's usual urban beauty style.
Zhang Yifeng's mouth dropped open in surprise. After a long pause, he said, "They're exactly the same! If only your eyes were sharper, you could represent CEO Li at the staff meeting."
Su Yinuo laughed awkwardly. She felt uncomfortable in her designer clothes. She had asked about it when she was changing earlier. The shirt alone cost tens of thousands of yuan. She felt like she wasn't wearing clothes, but RMB notes pieced together.
Zhang Yifeng clicked his tongue a few times, shook his head, and said, "That's unlike him. Our CEO Li never has such a reserved expression on his face."
Su Yinuo frowned worriedly again.
"Okay, stop scaring Nuoruo. This is enough. It's no problem to fool the evil spirit!" Li Jinmiao took out his mobile phone and sent a photo of Qin Cangye to Su Yinuo. "Look, this is Qin Cangye's evil spirit. Don't be fooled by his human appearance..."
Su Yinuo, who clicked on the photo, completely ignored Li Jinmiao's subsequent words. She stared blankly at the face on her phone, a face she had only seen once but had left a deep impression on her. She recalled the cold, manic, yet righteous man in a suit who had stepped out of the Phantom that had overturned the Maserati a few days ago, and his eyes, sharper than a blade. A chill ran down her spine, and she nearly fainted.
"What's wrong? Nuonuo!" Li Jinmiao supported Su Yinuo and asked hurriedly.
"It's okay, haha, it's okay, maybe I didn't eat enough at noon," Su Yinuo laughed dryly and waved his hands, took a deep breath, and said with a slightly trembling hand: "It may also be that Mr. Qin looks too scary."
"Then...are you still going?" Li Jinmiao didn't expect that just a photo could scare Su Yinuo like this. He immediately felt guilty and wanted to withdraw the commission.
"Go, go!" Su Yinuo smiled stiffly, "You can't judge a person by his appearance. Mr. Qin might be a good person, haha."
"Ah?" Li Jinmiao's mouth twitched.
In the evening, in order to adapt to the environment and relieve tension in advance, Su Yinuo arrived at the restaurant where Li Jinmiao and Qin Cangye had agreed to meet half an hour in advance.
Before leaving the company, Li Jinmiao repeatedly instructed his assistant Zhang Yifeng: "Take good care of Nuoruo. After they arrive, find a place nearby to eat some bread. Once they've finished eating, bring Nuoruo back safely."
"Don't worry, Mr. Li," Zhang Yifeng showed his signature smile.
After sending Su Yinuo to the restaurant, Zhang Yifeng immediately disappeared. Su Yinuo looked back several times, but couldn't find where he had hidden. She took a deep breath, picked up the menu, and then froze again.
This is a high-end restaurant with dim lighting and very stylish decoration. The restaurant is very quiet, not because there are few people, but because each table is far apart and separated by retro Jiangnan screens and green plants.
Most of the dishes on the menu were Huaiyang cuisine. What shocked Su Yinuo was not the exquisiteness of the dishes, but the prices that were obviously not affordable for ordinary people.
Su Yinuo looked over and over before finding the cheapest dish. It was only the size of a fist, but it was placed on a plate bigger than her face. Looking at its red and yellow color, Su Yinuo naturally mistook it for scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
At this moment, her mind was in a strange state of tension. In fact, she was extremely nervous, but in order to make herself appear less nervous, she would continuously do simple things, such as fixing her hair and flipping through the menu.
She didn't even look at the names of each dish, but just memorized the first impression in her mind, and even repeated it several times: Wow, the cheapest one is the scrambled eggs with tomatoes for 166.
Behind her, she could hear the sound of fast-paced footsteps. Just by hearing the footsteps, Su Yinuo could sense the person's impatience. She shuddered, stopped flipping through the menu, and froze in her seat with her head down.
She didn't dare to look up at all. Her peripheral vision tilted towards the source of the sound, and then she saw a pair of shiny black leather shoes and a pair of long legs rushing out of her sight.
The temperature around them dropped a few degrees for no reason. Su Yinuo nervously said to herself: He's coming! Ahhhh he's coming!
